Minamigaoka Clinic
Clinic Introduction

The clinic maintains a collaborative referral network with Minamigaoka Hospital and other medical institutions as needed, and is equipped to accommodate a broad range of public medical assistance programs, including public welfare benefits, designated intractable disease programs, and services under the Act for Welfare of Persons with Physical Disabilities.

Comprehensive Internal Medicine Expertise and an Infection-Controlled Clinical Environment
The clinic’s director, Dr. Yoshiko Mukosaka, is a graduate of Kanazawa Medical University and holds a doctorate in medicine. She is an active member of multiple professional societies, including the Japan Respiratory Society, the Japan Diabetes Society, and the Japanese Society of Allergology. Dr. Mukosaka provides comprehensive internal medicine care encompassing diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, cardiovascular disease, respiratory conditions, and allergic disorders, welcoming both patients with confirmed symptoms and those who have concerns about a possible underlying condition. For patients presenting with fever or cold-like symptoms, a dedicated care pathway has been established — requiring advance telephone registration and completion of a pre-consultation questionnaire — to ensure a safe and thoroughly infection-controlled clinical environment.
